This waterfront property is located in Sorrento, Maine, on a 3.7-acre peninsula with 743 ft. of waterfront on Long Cove. The home's interior has a cozy feeling of Maine with its post and beam warm wood finishes. This meticulously cared-for home has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The property includes a basement, a heated oversized attached 3-car garage, and a shed for ample storage space. Inside, the main living area features an entry/mudroom with closets, a kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, a dining room, a guest bedroom, and a guest bathroom, a two-story great room with exposed wood posts and beams that show off the floor-to-peak windows overlooking the waterfront. Additionally, the property offers a second, smaller family room, a laundry room, a primary suite, and an attached garage entry. Upstairs, there's a guest bedroom space, or you can make it an office, craft room, or anything you choose. The first-floor primary suite includes a walk-in closet, a primary bath suite with in-floor radiant heat, a jacuzzi tub, and a large tiled shower. Another notable feature of the home is a 4-season sunroom with an exterior small deck. Right off the kitchen is a deck and slate patio for those spring, summer, and fall days. And there are no worries with the whole house generator on the property; this gives you peace of mind even when you are not home. A few extras worth mentioning would be that there are heat pumps for A/C, new gutters and epoxy garage flooring. The landscaping is full of seasonal flowers, bushes and apple trees. These sellers have added gray rock rip-rap, new decking, and a granite patio. The location of this property is within a 20+/-minute drive to Ellsworth for hospital care, pharmacies, big box stores, banks, and several grocery stores, which are relatively close but far enough to feel removed from it all. Bangor is approximately an hour's drive, depending on where you land. Call today before it's gone!
